Summary
When the orphaned Pip comes into a mysterious fortune, he's able to realize his dream of becoming a gentleman. Newly rich, and with the manners to prove it, he snubs his old friends and hopes to marry the haughty Estella. One stormy night Pip learns the truth about his benefactor, and while his physical struggles have ended, Pip's moral challenges are just beginning. Comical yet deeply moving, "Great Expectations" features some of Dickens's most memorable characters, including the convict Magwitch and the jilted Miss Havisham.
